Objective To explore the recovery time of hepatic function in infants with jaundice type of human cytomega-lovirus (HCMV) hepatitis and its influencing factors. Methods The clinical data of 73 infants with jaundice type of HCMV hepa-titis admitted to hospital from February 2005 to October 2012 were retrospectively analyzed. The effects on hepatic function of nine factors including age, sex, liver size, total bilirubin (TBil), direct bilirubin (DBil), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspar-tate aminotransferase (AST), total bile acid (TBA) and the loads of HCMV DNA were assessed by Kaplan Meier method, and further analyzed by Cox proportional hazards regression model. Results The results of Cox proportional hazards regression showed that age≤3 month (RR=0.27, 95%CI:0.10-0.70), DBil≤90μmol/L (RR=0.16, 95%CI:0.08-0.32), male (RR=0.49, 95%CI:0.26-0.94) and enlarged liver size<3 cm (RR=0.50, 95%CI:0.27-0.93) were independent factors that shorten the time for TBil back to be normal. Furthermore, AST≤120 U/L (RR=0.16, 95%CI:0.08-0.33) and enlarged liver size<3 cm (RR=0.28, 95%CI:0.15-0.49) were independent factors that shorten the time for AST back to be normal. The time for TBil back to be normal was (2.23 ± 1.54) months, which was significantly shorter than that [(3.63 ± 1.93) months] of AST (t=10.37, P<0.001). Conclusions Jaundice type HCMV hepatitis had good outcome and varied in disease course. The recovery of hepatic function was significantly adversely affected by the degree of cholestasis and hepatomegaly as well as AST level, and early treatment was conducive to the recovery.

Objective To prepare and characterize monoclonal antibody against a malaria vaccine candidate, PfCP-2.9 chimeric protein of Plasmodium falciparum. Methods BALB/c mice were immunized with PfCP-2.9,and the spleen cells were used for fusion with SP2/0 cells. The monoclonal antibodies were analyzed by ELISA,Western blotting as well as growth inhibition assay. Result A monoclonal antibody was obtained. It interacted with the PfCP-2.9 recombinant protein by ELISA and Western blotting. The interaction of the monoclonal antibody with the protein was reduction-sensitive,indicating that the antibody recognized a conformational epitope. Moreover,the antibody also recognized the cultured parasites of P.falciparum by indirect immunofluorescent antibody test(IFA). When tested by growth inhibition assay,the antibody significantly inhibited parasite growth in vitro of 56% inhibition rate at the antibody concentration of 0.3 mg/ml. Conclusion A monoclonal antibody against PfCP-2.9 malaria vaccine candidate has been obtained,which recognizes a conformational epitope of the protein and natural protein.

? AlM: To compare the two methods for the measurement of glaucoma patients' intraocular pressure ( lOP) between Goldmann applanation tonometer ( GAT) and non-contact tonometer ( NCT) and find the laws of the two methods.?METHODS: The lOP of 108 glaucoma patients ( 206 eyes) were measured by GAT and NCT respectively.?RESULTS: ln 108 glaucoma patients, the average lOP of 206 eyes was 29. 77 ± 10. 27mmHg by GAT and 24. 59 ± 8. 58mmHg by NCT. There was significant difference between GAT and NCT (P<0. 01). The higher of lOP, the difference between GAT and NCT was greater.?CONCLUSlON: The measurement results with NCT were lower than that of GAT. The higher of lOP, the difference between GAT and NCT was greater. lt's better to measure lOP by GAT for the glaucoma patients, in order to avoid the misdiagnosis and mistreatment of glaucoma.

AlM:To evaluate the clinic efficacy of protein-free calf blood extract ophthalmic gel on healing children dry eye.METHODS: One hundred patients ( 50 patients each group) with children dry eye were divided into two groups randomly: control group was dropped 1g/L sodium hyaluronate eye drop four times per day and experimental group was dropped protein-free calf blood extract ophthalmic gel four times per day. Both groups received the depathogeny treatment at the same time. Symptom scores, Schirmer l test values, tear break-up time ( BUT ) , cornea fluorescein staining scores were recorded on the prior treatment and 30d post-treatment, then they were analyzed.
RESULTS:There were statistically significant difference (P<0. 05) for the comparison in the symptom scores, Schirmer l test values, BUT, cornea fluorescein staining scores of prior treatment and post-treatment in each groups.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the application of fuzzy comprehensive evaluation in formulation screening. METH-ODS:Taking Compound paracetamol and chlorphenamine maleate granules as model drug,based on single factor experiment,L9(34) orthogonal test was used to screen the formulation with the amount of aspartame,hawthorn powder essence,milk powder essence and saccharose as factors,using dissolution rate of caffeine as index. The granules prepared by 9 kinds of formulation in orthogonal test were evaluated with fuzzy comprehensive evaluation in terms of taste,aroma,color and dissolubility. The optimized formula-tion was validated and compared with original formulation. RESULTS:The formulation 5 was the optimal choice in both orthogo-nal test and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation,and obtained same results. Compared with sensory comprehensive score (63.12) and dissolution rate of caffeine (91.3%) in original formulation,two indicators of optimized formulation in 3 tests were 84.00 and 99.07% in average (RSD<2.0%,n=3). CONCLUSIONS:Fuzzy comprehensive evaluation can be used for the formulation screening of sensory evaluation index. It is scientific and accurate.
